blackwaterside, old folk song a few hundred years old,but the lyrics are timeless.

you could make me believe,with your lying tongue
that the sun,rose in the west.

bert janch does a superb version.

jimmy page's black mountainside is another musical version.
 
"Death Or Glory" by The Clash

Now every cheap hood strikes a bargain with the world,
Ends up making payments on a sofa or a girl.
Love 'n hate tattooed across the knuckles of his hands,
Hands that slap his kids around, 'cause they don't understand how,

Death or glory, becomes just another story.
Death or glory, becomes just another story.

'n every gimmick hungry yob digging gold from rock 'n roll,
Grabs the mike to tell us he'll die before he's sold,
But I believe in this and it's been tested by research,
He, who *s nuns, will later join the church.

Death or glory, becomes just another story.
Death or glory, becomes just another story.

Probably means more than any other lyrics in any other song in history.

"I don't want to see a ghost
It's a sight that I fear most
I'd rather have a piece of toast
And watch the evening news"


Says everything that needs to be said about life.
 
and when i come home
cold and tired
it's good to warm my bones
beside the fire.

"It’s awfully considerate of you to think of me herehttp://genius.com/3206108/Pink-floy...d-to-you-for-making-it-clear-that-im-not-here
And I’m much obliged to you for making it clear
That I’m not here
And I never knew the moon could be so big
And I never knew the moon could be so blue
And I’m grateful that you threw away my old shoes
And brought me here instead
Dressed in red"

The sound of insanity......
 
And when you loose control
you'll reap the harvest
you have sown.

Always felt Black Sabbath's "Paranoid" had huge identification potential:

"Finished with my woman 'cause she couldn't help me with my mind
People think I'm insane because I am frowning all the time
All day long I think of things but nothing seems to satisfy
Think I'll lose my mind if I don't find something to pacify

Can you help me occupy my brain?
Oh yeah

I need someone to show me the things in life that I can't find
I can't see the things that make true happiness, I must be blind

Make a joke and I will sigh and you will laugh and I will cry
Happiness I cannot feel and love to me is so unreal

And so as you hear these words telling you now of my state
I tell you to enjoy life I wish I could but it's too late"

Never got into TISM. Nice line though.



You're a yob or you're a w***er -
Take your f***ing choice
So who is your favourite genius
James Hird or James Joyce?
You ever seen a live performance?
Join the w***er club
You thought I meant table top dancing?
You're a yobbo, bub

What are ya? Yob or w***er?

w***ers once used mobile phones
But now that's sorta changing
And yobs once lived in cottage homes -
Ain't social change amazing?
If a yob and w***er want a girl
The w***er guy will get her -
Both of them are equally ugly
But the w***er hides it better

What are ya? Yob or w***er?

I think there's something in that for all of us.

KISS- Nothin To Lose.

Before I had a baby
I didn't care anyway
I thought about the back door
I didn't know what to say

But once I got a baby
I, I tried every way
She didn't wanna do it
But she did anyway

Best Kiss song!

But she did anyway

Always liked this line -

"I can swear there ain't no heaven but I pray there ain't no hell...."



(Written by Laura Nyro)

I'm not scared of dying
And I, don't really care
If it's peace you find in dying
Well then, let the time be near

If it's peace you find in dying
Well then dying time is near
Just bundle up my coffin
'Cause it's cold way down there
I hear that it's
Cold way down there, yeah
Crazy cold, way down there

And when I die, and when I'm gone
There'll be, one child born
In this world
To carry on, to carry on

Now troubles are many
They're as
Deep as a well
I can swear there ain't no Heaven
But I pray there ain't no hell
Swear there ain't no Heaven
And I'll pray there ain't no hell
But I'll never know by livin'
Only my dyin' will tell, yes only my
Dyin' will tell, oh yeah
Only my dyin' will tell

And when I die, and when I'm gone
There'll be, one child born, in this world
To carry on, to carry on
Yeah yeah

Give me my freedom
For as long as I be
All I ask of livin'
Is to have no chains on me
All I ask of livin'
Is to have no chains on me
And all I ask of dyin' is to
Go natrually, only wanna
Go naturally
Here I go!
Hey hey
Here come the devil
Right behind
Look out children, here he come
Here he come, heyyy

Don't wanna go by the devil
Don't wanna go by the demon
Don't wanna go by satan
Don't wann die uneasy
Just let me go
Naturally

And when I die, and when I'm dead
Dead and gone
There'll be
One child born, in our world
To carry on, to carry on
